So my account of any escapades of the phobic four won&#8217;t appear until next week or not at all, unless particularly newsworthy&#8230;But if it\u2019s the aspects for the week ahead you are primarily interested in look no further. On Sunday evening in the U.K. Venus and Mercury leave the rootin\u2019 tootin\u2019 battlefield of Aries where they have had to argue every point, and enter the rose gardens of Taurus, where they can enjoy a mini-renaissance, a festival of art and literature.\u00a0 It would be the ideal circumstances to begin writing a book with illustrations on every page; combinations of words and pictures will work well together.\u00a0 Mercury, Venus and Mars are performing a concerto in the early degrees of Taurus this week, with aspects to\u00a0 Chiron in early Pisces, and Pluto in early Capricorn.\u00a0 On Monday (16<sup>th<\/sup>) Venus and Mercury dance cheek to cheek, and it may be one of those days where you see everything coming together especially when you are engaged in discussion \u2013 you can come to an agreement.\u00a0 It could be a successful \u00a0week, potentially, but it will take work on your part.\u00a0 Venus with Mercury will be good for dialogue and sweet talk, including diplomatic initiatives, e.g. for dictators to start talking to rebels without shouting.\u00a0 Mercury\/Venus sextiles Neptune on the same day, so there is a spiritual uplift to this creativity.\u00a0 Savour the day.\u00a0 The Full Moon in Scorpio dominates on Tuesday (17<sup>th<\/sup>) and you\u2019ll need to deal with strops or tantrums from someone in your circle, if it\u2019s not you.\u00a0 Someone is fed up with the status quo.\u00a0 But this week generally has a lot going for it, and this may be the only fly in the ointment.\u00a0 The new series (number 7) of The Apprentice continues on Wednesday evening (18<sup>th<\/sup>), Sir Alan Sugar currently having Uranus (enterprising candidates) on his Sun in Aries (gruff persona), trine his shrewd Saturn in Leo (entertainment).\u00a0 This series looks to be a stunner as befits his transit, so watch if you need to fill in time between all the planetary action, and if you enjoy the caricatures, the wild boasting, and the business ploys.\u00a0 Melody, the successful Project Manager in the first show, has elevated credentials: \u201cI was trained by Al Gore\u2026I was personally taught by Desmond Tutu and the Dalai Lama.\u201d\u00a0 I hope there\u2019s an App, for that.\u00a0 Mars\/Mercury sextiles Chiron on Thursday (19<sup>th<\/sup>), ensuring your words will be heard loud and clear (wild boasting included), and more seriously also have the desired effect, which might be to heal a symptom, or a situation.\u00a0 There may be a slight health and safety issue, so don\u2019t ignore the basics, such as looking at fine print and checking your tyres.\u00a0 By the Friday (20<sup>th<\/sup>) Venus too joins the sextile with Chiron: three chances for healing.\u00a0 If you are a healer, join with others and role play Venus, Mercury, Mars and Chiron in a healing circle or psychodrama.\u00a0 It\u2019s a powerful line-up for healing, well-being, personal fitness and lifestyle choices.\u00a0 If your path is not involved with healing, it may be a very active and productive day for you with healing side effects or by-products, especially in earth or ecological related activities.\u00a0 On top of that, Mars trines Pluto, so an enormous amount can be achieved energetically.\u00a0 For best results, do the communing\/healing or the practical work first, and you can release a huge amount of potential energy, for constructive purposes.\u00a0 If you\u2019re in a war zone, there will be a lot going on, and though the two war planets Mars and Pluto are\u00a0 working together, in a dangerous situation violence can still get out of hand.\u00a0 Be aware.\u00a0 Mercury, three hours later, trines Pluto &#8211; a chance to execute the perfec t post-mortem on the day\u2019s events.\u00a0 Saturday (21<sup>st<\/sup>) brings Mercury and Mars together in a conjunction.\u00a0 The truth is, all three planets have been huddling together all week, and have hardly left each others\u2019 side.\u00a0 There is definitely a group effort going on.\u00a0 The Sun, leading, now leaves the sign of Taurus, scene of most of the week\u2019s\u00a0 action, and enters Gemini, the sign of fresh air and variety.\u00a0 The tone of cosiness is partially overtaken by a nimbler mental atmosphere beginning to emerge.\u00a0 We may still be ploughing furrows, with Venus\/Mercury\/Mars still in Taurus, but we are also engaging on the mental plane, and receiving ideas for future applications (or Apps) of current practical activities.\u00a0 The week ends with a heartwarming trine between Venus and Pluto, ideal conditions for expressing or unburdening feelings.\u00a0 As with Mars trine Pluto, there is still scope for feelings to get out of hand, but by and large it\u2019s favourable for exploring art, music, relationships or even financial issues.\u00a0 There\u2019s something for everyone this week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I ought to be reporting back from the Eurovision song contest,\u00a0 if you are reading this on Sunday.\u00a0 By that time I will be touring Cologne,\u00a0 perhaps even visiting the chocolate factory.
